I was not going to do the Tour de l'ile de Montreal this year, but changed my mind at the last minute.
Even though it started in pouring rain, the atmosphere is so positive that I did not regret the decision. Within the hour, the sun was out and it was extremely pleasant as we stopped at the 2nd rest area in Lasalle.
Perhaps the raison d'etre for the tour might be diminished now that cycling has become integrated into the transportation fabric of the city, but it is still an energizing experience to the full access to the road without the worry of avoiding cars and trucks all the time.
Long live the tour!
